Finally an update worth writing about.

So as many of you know I've been through a wild couple of years. I can finally say I've driven the car more than around the block lol. Drove it about 100 miles in the last 2 days in some beautiful weather.

I can go ahead and say that the SRM (Sean) master cylinder clutch setup is phenomenal. It feels like stock clutch. Top that with the service he provided me was great.

Have to give Garth credit for coming to Orlando from Clearwater to help me get the car running while here for a wedding. Turning will follow up soon.

I can't wait to see it tuned this thing just wants open road. The exhaust sounds nasty as %#@$. It's definitely been a long a$$ and frustrating at time build but I can finally say I'm thrilled with the progress in the last few week's.

Great to hear Jimmy! It's been a long road for you and it's great to see you getting miles on it! Nice of Garth to swing by too, he's been pretty helpful to me when I've had weird stuff go wrong lol. Glad you like that clutch master, it really is damn nice and far easier to drive!

Thanks I can't wait to have it 100 percent done. This is a huge step in the right direction.

James that clutch setup is such a massive difference. Makes driving a pleasure not a here we go again. The car is easily driven in traffic. I drove it with the other setup in traffic and it was a *****.

I know they almost look like OPALOKA Airport.


It's actually Central Florida by the airport.




Arjay yes at long last. A few more things to do for it to be really done. I'm sure it will be a few months to be 100% how I want it. At a minimum I can drive it which is the best part lol. God knows it has been a long a$$ road.
